"Engaging in a little suffering — however self-imposed, arbitrary and contrived — before breakfast each morning tends to demand some humility and injects some marked relief into the rest of the day, making things sharper, more inspired, more immediately aware of the powerful presence of being. And that seems really worthwhile." A. Krupicka

 

"I cruised down hills, churned up hills, and floated over the asphalt, existing in a world that seemed to lack the confinements of such ubiquitous rivets as time, obligation, or pain. I knew then that this was destined to be one of those serendipitous runs for which so many of 
us strive yet so rarely achieve." J. Nevels

10.2 miles / 8:18 avg. from work/rio grande - north. felt good today. i've been sort of mentally burnt all week and struggling to get out the door, but each day i do, and i end up feeling much better. i was only going to go 6 - 8 miles today but i felt so good i wanted to take advantage of it. a 2:11 negative split!

splits: 8:35, 8:41, 8:33, 8:39, 8:05, 8:05, 7:58, 7:52, 8:15, 8:10, +.2@8:17.

pm - 4 easy miles on the cattle road with Loki and the sunset. lots of bugs marred an otherwise perfect evening run.
